Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 288GTO Vs 308/328

[LarryT (l02turner]

Ahhh  HA!  I discovered the reason my [your] search failed to return the 
desired results  -
I clicked the lin and since it (the link) wrapped the end of the search 
criteria stopped with {snip} Ferrar"...
while the "i GTO vs 328" was on the next line.  Try the link as described 
and you;ll see some interesting results ;-)

Anyway,, I get your point - searching can provide an answer very quickly.

xoxoxo -  right back at ya'  !!
